Carbonada For The Soul

We had a nice afternoon, the sun proved not to be a myth! But once the sun no longer graced us with its presence the cold moved in quickly. I made a Chilean based soup I found while scrounging the food part of the internet yesterday. I became curious about Chilean cuisine and stumbled upon a soup called Carbonada. It’s a beef vegetable soup. I followed this recipe minus the pumpkin. I also had to improv a little on the onion situation with a mixture of green onion and a shallot in place of the yellow onion. There was also some leftover rice from another dish the other night, but not enough for it to be noticed in the big soup. I might make some quinoa to go with it, it’s good for you and I have an odd craving for it for some reason…
